Other prosecution witnesses sketched the highly organized cai pool operations set up by the association to transport Negroes whe were not patronizing the buses. More than 300 private automobiles are being used in the pool. Although the bus dispute started as a demand for better seating arrangements even if segregated, it spread to an outright attack on city and state travel segregation laws. A suit challenging the constitutionality of the law is now pending in United States District Court. The mass protest began Dec. 5 after Mrs. Rosa Parks, a seamstress, was arrested and fined $14 for refusing to move to tl.2 section of a bus set aside for Negroes.

“We do not condone these practices,” Dr. Silver stated, “and we’ll

have none of them.”

“I can't be too emphatic,” he

declared.

“This administration wants more than any administration in the past to promote better relations among the races and we will do all we can within the law — and beyond—to realize this aim. “Whenever any officer, or anyone steps out of line with our policy they should be pushed back —and they shall be pushed back by this administration,” Dr. Silver:

assured.

DR. SILVER, a Butler university history professor, went on to say “the walls of discrimination and prejudice are crumbling and before long they will be completely blown away.” He cautioned that many prejudiced people w’ho want to maintain segregation are holding on, "fighting against the tide which is rolling across the country on the strength of the Supreme Court’s school decision, and other decisions.” “But these people will be swept up in the tide. They’ll go along and total integration will be real-

ized.”

THE CHIEF, onVthe force 20 years, said He "neveF' condoned brutality,” but asserted he had told officers to “defend themselves at all times.” Kuykendall said he had "great confidence in the chief’s integrity” and added that “police certainly have the right to protect them-

selves.”

DeFrantz brought up what he termed “the attitude of the police department with regard to mivil

rights.”

He said the program is geared geared to restrain mixed couples and charged “a Negro caught with a white woman is liable to get

his head beaten.”

Mr. Ransom said there was a need for a better program of informing policemen of the civil rights laws. He said officers for the most part have “general knowledge” of the laws but lack “spe-

cific knowledge.”
